This specialty yarn is the fruit of a collaboration between La Bien Aimée and Rosa Pomar. The famous Mondim is now available in a specially curated palette of La Bien Aimée colors.

This lovely 3-ply yarn, named after a portuguese village once famous for its sock knitting cottage industry, will be perfect for garments (including colourwork sweaters) and accessories. It is also recommended for knitting socks, just make sure you handwash them.

Please note due to the rustic nature of the yarn it is possible that you will find straw or other vegetable matter spun in with your yarn. It’s the charm of this base and its sheep to skein adventure.
